A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 1: Traveling through time, no cheat code

Huang Mulin was lying on the bed, holding a notice of dismissal in his hand.

unemployed.

I'll look for a job tomorrow...

She thought so before she suddenly felt extremely sleepy.

......

Tianxiang Country, the 29th year of Tianqi. This is a fictional era and country that is not in Chinese history.

Tianxiang Kingdom occupies the central position of this continent. It ranks first in terms of land area among the six major countries. It is rich in resources and has both civil and military capabilities. It is not only a big country, but also a powerful country.

Two years ago, the country ended a war that lasted more than seven years with the Matan Kingdom in the far north, and both sides are resting and recuperating.

Rong, Bao, Zhujin and Qili are all peace factions and have lived in peace for decades.

The southernmost border of Tianxiang Kingdom, Xiushan Village, Taiping Township, Linhai Town, Qiling County.

Huang is the most common surname in this village.

Near the entrance of the village, there is a house at the foot of the mountain with smoke rising from the chimney. With its back against the mountain and no other neighbors within a hundred meters, it lives in a secluded corner.

Just a little run-down.

"Why hasn't she given birth yet?"

Huang Bo, a farmer dressed in shorts, stood outside the door and muttered.

His wife, He Hui Niang, was giving birth to her fifth child.

The first four children were all sons.

The eldest, Huang Qilin, is six years old.

The second child, Huang Haolin, is five years old.

The third child, Huang Xilin, is four years old.

The fourth child, Huang Jinlin, is three years old.

Last year, when they learned that the wife was pregnant, the couple was happy but at the same time worried about having another boy.

There has been more drought than rain in the past two years, and the crops in the fields have not grown well, making the already poor family even worse off.

When Huang Bo divided his family, he only got five mu of wasteland. It was his diligent work day and night that made it possible to grow some food. But for a family of six who all depended on this little land, it was not enough.

He Hui Niang's mother was an embroiderer when she was young and had good embroidery skills. He Hui Niang learned everything from her. After getting married, she went to the embroidery shop in the town to take some simple embroidery jobs to earn some money to supplement the family income and prevent the children in the family from starving to death.

"Mrs. Tan has only been in for a while. It took a long time for my fourth brother to be born. Dad, please wait a little longer."

The eldest brother Huang Qilin looked nervous. He recalled the scene when he watched his fourth brother being born and comforted his father.

Mrs. Qin is the midwife who has delivered the most babies in Taiping Township. She delivered all four of Huang Bo's brothers, and this time is no exception.

"Dad, what do you think we'll do if we have another brother?"

Huang Haolin asked.

This unlucky kid!

Huang Bo was just about to comfort his sons when the second son gave him a blow to the heart.

"If it's a brother, can you change it to a sister?"

"Or let me give birth again?"

"Isn't it too hard for mother?"

"Dad, why don't you say anything?"

If Huang Qilin hadn't pulled him back, Huang Haolin would have had a bump on his head.

This guy is so eloquent, I don’t know who he looks like.

Huang Bo took a few deep breaths before he resisted the urge to beat his son.

He glared at the second brother a few times, and the tension was relieved.

The third and fourth children on the side seemed not to hear their conversation. The two little kids had stern faces and stared at the closed door without blinking.

A sharp cry of pain came from inside the house, which frightened the father and his two sons outside the door. The next second, they heard Granny Tan shouting, "Push harder!... I can see the head... It's about to come out!..."

The five people's hands clenched unconsciously.

Soon, the crying of a baby accompanied by the footsteps of Mrs. Qin reached the door.

The door opened, and Mrs. Tan smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations, it's a beautiful girl!"

"Really?"

The four of them, father and son, were surprised and wanted to rush into the room after asking.

Mrs. Qin hurriedly stopped them and said, "The head of the household can go in and take care of the mother and daughter. The four young men should quickly make some food for your mother to replenish her energy. She will have to feed the baby later."

Huang Bo quickly thanked Mrs. Qin and gave her a double red envelope, which made her so happy that she kept saying a few nice things before leaving. The boys knew they couldn't go into the house, so they went to the kitchen to cook for their mother.

"Hui Niang." Huang Bo closed the door to prevent the wind from following him into the house. He quickly glanced at his daughter, who was fairer than most children. The smile on his face deepened a little, and then he turned to his wife and asked, "Are you okay?"

He Hui Niang, lying on the bed, looked a little haggard. Her pretty face did not look like a farm woman at all. Her smiling eyes under her delicate eyebrows made people feel soft-hearted.

"Fortunately, this child is much better than the third and fourth children. He didn't have much trouble."

The man tucked the quilt for her and whispered thank you. He Hui Niang's slightly raised lips were full of satisfaction.

After Huang Mulin experienced a suffocating squeeze, she had no time to react to the current situation. The conversation between the man and woman around her made her confused.

Did she cross?

In a daze, she felt her stomach was empty, and her baby instinct made her grin and cry.

"Oh, little girl, you're hungry." He Hui's mother quickly sat up, ignoring the pain from having just given birth, and took the daughter that Huang Bo had gently carried over to her: "Mother's little darling, I'll feed you right away."

Huang Mulin was a little reluctant in his heart, but he couldn't resist his hungry stomach and the instinct to find food, so he had to go with the flow.

After eating and drinking, she fell asleep quickly.

Neighbors in the village sent them some red eggs, brown rice, peanuts, red dates, a few pieces of cloth and other things. The couple thanked them repeatedly. Huang Bo said that he would prepare a simple family dinner for everyone when the child was one year old.

The villagers smiled and agreed that it was not a serious matter. These days, most families can't even get enough to eat, so where would they get the money to treat others to a meal?

Besides, Huang Bo’s family is very poor, and this is something everyone in the village knows.

......

It was early March and the weather was still chilly. The little girl lying on the bed was wearing an old gray padded jacket that could only be worn by a two or three-year-old child. It had several patches on it, was very thin, and had a slight odor, but it was the best clothing the family could find.

Huang Mulin thought a lot during the few days since he traveled through time, and gradually accepted it.

Anyway, she had no attachment to the past world.

......

"My sister is so pretty." She heard a child's voice when she was half asleep: "She is prettier than all the girls in the village!"

"That's right! Don't you see whose sister this is?"

"My family!"

"It's from my family!"

Several different voices buzzed in his ears, and Huang Mulin had to wake up.

She slowly opened her eyes.

"Hey, my sister is awake."

"She's looking at me."

"No! Look at me!"

Really noisy.

She couldn't see the people clearly yet, only a few blurry shadows.

"Look at me, sister! I'm your big brother."

Huang Qilin said in a low voice.

"Look at me!"

"Look at me!"

The other brothers started fighting over it.

"What are you doing surrounding my sister, you naughty boys? You'll scare her and make her cry!"

Huang Bo pushed the door open and stepped into the bedroom. He found that his sons were surrounding his daughter, so he hurried forward and drove them away.

"Dad, we want to be with our sister."

The fourth child, Huang Jinlin, mumbled in a baby voice like a three-year-old.

The brothers nodded repeatedly.

"Why are you accompanying me?" Huang Bo gave his sons a fierce look and said, "If you keep going in and out, the wind might blow in and hit your sister. Watch out for yourselves!"

The boys shrank their heads and looked at their mother who was watching the show at the side.

"It's all right." He Hui Niang received her sons' call for help: "I let them in. The door is closed. Everything is fine."

"Humph, I am the evil one."

The clever second brother took his brothers and ran away. He and the eldest brother had to collect firewood. The third brother decided to take the fourth brother to pick some fresh weeds around the house to feed the chickens, so that the only old hen in the family could lay more eggs to nourish their mother.

Listening to the soft whispers of his current parents, with a strange warmth in their voices, Huang Mulin fell asleep again.

On the day of the full moon, her name was decided. Just like in her previous life, she was called Huang Mulin. She silently gave a thumbs up to her current parents in her heart.

On the fifth day of the sixth lunar month, Huang Mulin was three months old.

Now awake, she stared at the newly added small hole in the roof almost facing her, and prayed silently that it would not rain today.

The Huang family is very poor.

Everywhere you look, the furniture is shabby. In Huang Bo and his wife's room, there is only a wooden bed, a large wooden box that could fall apart at any time, two stools with patched legs, and an old bamboo basket that contains He Hui Niang's embroidery tools.

The family members she saw all had sallow faces, were shriveled and fleshless, and their clothes were covered with layers of patches. They didn't even have a pair of shoes that could completely cover their feet, and each foot had holes.

Huang Mulin sighed deeply in his heart.

She studied international trade in her previous life, which is completely useless in this era.

Huang Mulin also secretly studied his own body, trying to find the "golden finger" often mentioned in novels, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
